The Cocoanuts (1927 tour, Marx Brothers) - repro

Irving Berlin and George S. Kaufman’s classic 1925 musical farce 'The Cocoanuts' achieved legendary status as the defining theatrical vehicle engineered to showcase the anarchic physical slapstick of the Marx Brothers. The fast-paced, rhythmic plot unfolds inside a grand resort hotel during the chaotic heights of the 1920s Florida land boom, tracking an unctuous, smooth-talking hotel manager who orchestrates a series of fraudulent real estate schemes and farcical deceptions to fleece wealthy tourists. This historic 1927 national touring company production brought the original Broadway blueprints directly to major houses across North America, showcasing the definitive performances of Groucho, Harpo, Chico, and Zeppo Marx.
